  Description

  After many years travelling, living in ecovillages, volunteering and hosting travellers with the only purpose of cultural exchange and personal growth we now feel we need some help and the motivation of doing projects in a team to see our land blossom again with biodiversity and peace. I am a single father of two wonderful boys aged 15 and 19, (one of them already flew the nest to study Philosophy at uni) living in a rural area 20km off the main city Cagliari and surrounded by nature. Our land is small, only 2000sq metres, but for us is big and big enough for a huge veg garden and a food forest living in sustainable permaculture way trying to be as zero waste as possible. Unfortunately, or not, the reality is our veg garden is small and mainly with love feeds snails and wild rabbits 😅 and the food forest still in paper. I feel far from being green thumbed and my son is busy busy with thousand projects that's why we're calling for your help. We love handmade things and slow living. My son is a science student at high school with a passion for skateboarding, photography and learning new things. I would define myself as a life enthusiast, always eager for learning new things, a yogini wannabe and a laid back kind of hippie always up for laughter. We love sharing and be welcoming. I'll try to reply to all of you ❤️ but please motivate your request after reading the whole profile

  Hébergement

  Maybe you'll have a private room with a French bed (120cm) in our shared house, if not engaged. If you fancy you can pitch a tent in the garden, we have tents and mattress available. Some parking for campervans, but not really even next to the house or campervan space at 5 minutes walk. Kitchen in the house, we'd love to be cooking, cleaning and eating meals together as part of the communal life
